"Europe has allowed us killing you"

A political application in connection with the situation in the Chechen Republic Ichkeria after the mean murder of the President of the CRI A. Mashadov on 08.03.2005.

The world became the witness of one more heinous crime of the Russian armed gangs: the legally elected and acknowledged by the world community President of the CRI Aslan Mashadov was killed. The Chechen people lost their leader, a patriot of the Native land, a courageous soldier, who up to his last day was fulfilling his civil and human duty. After his liquidation the Kremlin expected to achieve a sudden change of the military situation to its own advantage. But everything turned out to be just the opposite. The Chechen people and their heroic Resistance are full of determination to continue the armed struggle up to the final banishment of the enemy from the tormented Native land. The duty ...
